Genetic Testing for BCHE Variants Identifies Patients at Risk of Prolonged Neuromuscular Blockade in Response to Succinylcholine

BACKGROUND: Genetic variants in the BCHE (butyrylcholinesterase) gene are associated with reduced BChE enzyme activity and prolonged post-succinylcholine neuromuscular blockade, which can lead to postanesthetic apnea and respiratory depression. Testing for BChE deficiency is usually performed by bio...
